**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Sep 24 16:22:16 2023 Sep 24 16:22:16 * Morgan (~mads@192.168.1.117) has joined Sep 24 19:05:43 * MollyK (~igloo@192.168.1.127) has joined Sep 24 19:07:59 *he hears Sorgi's study door open* Sep 24 19:08:21 Excuse me... I'll take this opportunity to speak to Sorgi Sep 24 19:09:31 * Morgan gets up, going to catch Sorgi Sep 24 19:11:32 * MollyK is now known as Sorgi Sep 24 19:12:01 * Sorgi answers the door when he knocks Sep 24 19:12:05 M'lord. Sep 24 19:12:32 Captain... do you have a moment? I don't want to intrude Sep 24 19:14:38 * Sorgi smiles Sep 24 19:14:42 Come in Sep 24 19:15:18 * Morgan nods, closing the door Sep 24 19:16:37 * Sorgi gestures for him to sit at the desk Sep 24 19:17:26 * Morgan thanks him, sitting down Sep 24 19:17:49 * Sorgi does likewise Sep 24 19:17:56 I've had a conversation with Molly... I would like to work on our way home, though she has some preferences... Sep 24 19:18:13 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:18:16 Naturally Sep 24 19:19:06 She would prefer mornings, not middles. And I need time with the children each day Sep 24 19:22:10 * Sorgi nods, smiling Sep 24 19:22:28 Of course, and that is what you want, m'lord? Sep 24 19:23:14 * Morgan laughs quietly Sep 24 19:24:30 I want to be -doing-, not sitting about. Middles are just time spent waiting. Sep 24 19:25:55 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:26:32 Mornings then Sep 24 19:27:04 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:28:05 *he pulls out some paper* Sep 24 19:29:22 We'll arrive in Insel on Thursday morning, will you need to be relieved as soon as we dock? Sep 24 19:29:44 Realistically, yes Sep 24 19:30:33 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:30:43 Friday you will be with family Sep 24 19:31:14 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:31:25 On Saturday will you be back before your watch at eight? Sep 24 19:31:48 * Morgan scratches his chin Sep 24 19:32:03 [reckon we'll be back for eight in the morning Saturday?] Sep 24 19:32:08 Good question... Sep 24 19:33:15 [if we are up and breakfasted early, yes, or we could say goodbye on Friday evening and stay on the Rose so we can sail at first light?] Sep 24 19:33:51 [sorgi is asking if I'll be back in time for the 8am watch] Sep 24 19:34:05 [it is up to you, my love] Sep 24 19:34:32 I can arrange that to be the case Sep 24 19:34:39 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:35:09 And then you will want every day until we arrive in Freiburg? Sep 24 19:36:04 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:36:17 Yes, I will. I don't know when I'll get chance to sail again Sep 24 19:37:41 * Sorgi nods "I'll get that arranged, starting tomorrow Sep 24 19:37:54 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:38:09 I would like, if it is feasible... to bring her into Freiburg Sep 24 19:38:41 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:39:02 That can be done Sep 24 19:39:13 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:39:14 Thank you Sep 24 19:40:07 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:40:26 Claudia seems happy Sep 24 19:40:35 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:40:36 She does Sep 24 19:40:46 It's good to see Sep 24 19:41:15 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:41:32 Yes, it is. She was actually play fighting with HeinzHarold and me Sep 24 19:41:46 * Sorgi smiles Sep 24 19:42:11 She's doing very well in her healing right now Sep 24 19:42:20 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:42:29 Yes, she is. I'm extremely proud of her Sep 24 19:42:34 As am I Sep 24 19:44:00 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:44:16 It makes her a bit more vulnerable to being hurt and upset mind... Sep 24 19:44:32 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:44:53 I am confident that she has you and Heinzharold to support her if it goes wrong Sep 24 19:47:13 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:47:24 For as long as she's near us, yes Sep 24 19:53:52 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:54:20 I worry for her too, but she's making progress at a speed she has not before, and that's valuable Sep 24 19:54:33 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:54:37 Yes, it is Sep 24 19:57:04 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:57:20 We can only see, m'lord Sep 24 19:57:50 * Morgan nods Sep 24 19:58:01 She has come much further than I ever anticipated possible Sep 24 19:59:46 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 19:59:54 I agree Sep 24 20:00:53 I wanted to ask your advice... Sep 24 20:01:26 Mine, m'lord? Sep 24 20:02:11 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:03:41 I have decided to tell my family about my... abilities... my father views those sort of things the way I expected you to because of your faith... Sep 24 20:05:40 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 20:06:30 I was wondering what advice you could give to... mollify him. Sep 24 20:08:52 * Sorgi thinks Sep 24 20:09:37 That's a tough one, m'lord. I already trusted you and Molly a great deal, and as he does too it should be easier Sep 24 20:10:28 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:11:09 I thought perhaps the same argument you used... that it is a gift from Theus, to be used for His ends... Sep 24 20:12:07 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 20:12:18 That is what I believe Sep 24 20:13:11 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:13:24 After much thought I am inclined to agree... Sep 24 20:14:31 * Sorgi smiles Sep 24 20:14:44 I am glad you are at peace with it Sep 24 20:15:13 I wouldn't go -that- far Sep 24 20:15:16 * Morgan smiles Sep 24 20:15:51 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 20:18:02 Will it be difficult to manage those things on land? Sep 24 20:18:44 I've spent a lot of time practicing the control of it, particularly in Capperlucia... but if all else fails, I have a lake Sep 24 20:19:06 That was a practical choice Sep 24 20:19:14 * Morgan shrugs Sep 24 20:19:43 happenstance. But, as I say, I'm fairly good at controlling it even when I am distressed Sep 24 20:19:50 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 20:19:59 You haven't dived in lately Sep 24 20:21:25 No. I swim because I want to, not because I'm about to go bang Sep 24 20:22:09 * Sorgi nods, smiling Sep 24 20:22:36 It will be quiet without the family on this next trip Sep 24 20:22:47 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:23:06 No doubt. Its a bit strange having so many children aboard Sep 24 20:27:02 They are well-behaved and stay on this deck, they're no trouble Sep 24 20:28:04 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:53:21 They'll be happier on land, no doubt Sep 24 20:54:12 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:54:14 I imagine so Sep 24 20:55:14 Will I be leaving Brun this time? Sep 24 20:55:42 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:55:45 yes Sep 24 20:56:41 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 20:57:10 It will be useful to have a permanent contact there Sep 24 20:57:28 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:57:38 I agree. I think he's a good fit, too Sep 24 20:58:23 He's a lucky man, it's a beautiful land Sep 24 20:59:42 * Morgan nods Sep 24 20:59:44 Too hot though Sep 24 21:00:07 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 21:00:16 Very plentiful though Sep 24 21:00:29 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:00:36 The food was rather amazing Sep 24 21:01:04 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 21:01:14 I look forward to eating it again Sep 24 21:01:45 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:01:50 A pity it wouldn't last the trip home Sep 24 21:02:25 * Sorgi nods "even on ice it would spoil once it melted" Sep 24 21:02:39 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:02:58 I did consider doing something about that but didn't feel I'd have the time to commit to keeping it cold Sep 24 21:04:34 I wouldn't know, m'lord. I assume it's time consuming Sep 24 21:06:40 It takes a little work, yes Sep 24 21:12:41 It seems useful though Sep 24 21:12:54 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:12:57 definitely Sep 24 21:13:08 If you can get over the feeling you should be burned at the stake... Sep 24 21:20:09 * Sorgi looks a little awkward about this "I don't think that of you, m'lord " Sep 24 21:21:09 I did... Sudlachenburg is... easily the most superstitious place I've ever known. Sep 24 21:22:23 What changed? Sep 24 21:23:51 I've had no choice but to adapt to it. Its not going away. I'm still superstitious as hell about other things though Sep 24 21:25:35 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 21:25:48 It is hard to overcome Sep 24 21:25:56 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:27:11 Yes, it is. It is a difficulty I have had with your faith... as much as I push for acceptance, now and then I find myself thinking the worst because of someones faith... *he sighs* I have to take a long hard look at that ugliness now and then Sep 24 21:27:21 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 21:27:26 We all do, m'lord Sep 24 21:28:06 I suppose... as long as I hold myself accountable when I have those thoughts, it is progress. Sep 24 21:30:41 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 21:31:10 Captaining the Rose has taught me much about my prejudices Sep 24 21:31:22 Oh? Howso? Sep 24 21:34:12 That the men are men, first and foremost. The differences between them and myself are very minor Sep 24 21:35:57 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:37:24 I'm hoping I can use that line of thinking in Gottkirchen... its currently a Vatican grafdom Sep 24 21:38:14 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 21:38:51 It will challenge you, no doubt. People don't want to let go of what they know Sep 24 21:39:00 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:39:16 I don't necessarily want them to. Aside from the prejudice Sep 24 21:41:13 * Sorgi nods Sep 24 21:41:28 I hope you're successful Sep 24 21:41:34 * Morgan smiles slightly Sep 24 21:41:40 Me too... time will tell Sep 24 21:43:14 It usually does, m'lord Sep 24 21:44:26 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:44:29 I'd best leave you to it Sep 24 21:45:46 * Sorgi nods, standing Sep 24 21:45:55 * Morgan gets up Sep 24 21:46:05 I'll see you at eight tomorrow morning, m'lord Sep 24 21:46:11 Aye cap'n Sep 24 21:46:23 * Morgan inclines his head before leaving, going back into his study Sep 24 21:49:55 *he gets involved in the children's playing, then food, and finally bedtime. He reads to the three of them before putting Emil in his crib, and carrying Florrie for Alice. With an agreement that they'll eat in the ballroom, he gets a bit of time on deck before catching Molly just before they're due to eat. She's tying up her dress Sep 24 21:49:59 * Sorgi is now known as Molly Sep 24 21:50:03 Is all well? Sep 24 21:50:31 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:50:49 I've made arrangements to work while we sail Sep 24 21:52:51 Oh? *she wriggles the neckline of her dress, trying to downplay the cleavage Sep 24 21:53:02 * Morgan nods, watching her Sep 24 21:53:07 mornings Sep 24 21:53:20 And... taking her into dock in Freiburg Sep 24 21:54:11 * Molly puts her hands in, pushing her breasts apart. He hasn't seen this dress in a while, she wore it most before they got married Sep 24 21:54:21 That will be wonderful Sep 24 21:54:42 * Morgan nods Sep 24 21:55:32 I haven't seen that dress in quite a time Sep 24 21:57:48 * Molly sighs Sep 24 21:58:24 I need a bit more width through my hips and bottom than in some of my others Sep 24 21:59:41 * Morgan moves to her, gripping her hips Sep 24 21:59:45 Feels perfect to me Sep 24 22:00:29 * Molly smiles warmly Sep 24 22:00:39 That's just the hips though... Sep 24 22:01:10 Your point? Sep 24 22:01:29 Maybe my bottom won't feel so good... Sep 24 22:01:41 * Morgan reaches round, grabbing her backside firmly Sep 24 22:01:46 No...no that feels just as good Sep 24 22:01:56 * Molly whimpers, smiling Sep 24 22:02:02 That -does- feel good Sep 24 22:02:12 * Morgan smiles, kissing her Sep 24 22:02:37 * Molly kisses him back, arms going around his neck Sep 24 22:02:55 * Morgan pulls away slightly, holding her closely Sep 24 22:03:02 You are utterly perfect. Sep 24 22:03:11 * Molly blushes Sep 24 22:03:19 I am utterly yours. Sep 24 22:04:04 * Morgan smiles, kissing her forehead Sep 24 22:05:05 * Molly sighs happily Sep 24 22:05:23 My breasts don't fit in so well now Sep 24 22:05:35 * Morgan smiles slightly Sep 24 22:05:38 I might have noticed... Sep 24 22:05:44 * Molly smiles Sep 24 22:05:47 Might you? Sep 24 22:06:41 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:08:32 It's all the nursing. Your son certainly has an appetite Sep 24 22:09:33 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:09:43 He does indeed. Worth it, though Sep 24 22:09:49 * Molly nods Sep 24 22:10:00 I really do feel it helped us bond Sep 24 22:10:24 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:10:27 I agree Sep 24 22:10:48 And he's a very easy-going baby Sep 24 22:11:56 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:12:49 Yes, he is. Very calm, I think Sep 24 22:13:12 * Molly nods Sep 24 22:13:33 I cannot wait to find out what sort of babies our next ones will be Sep 24 22:14:01 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:14:07 I hope they will be happy Sep 24 22:14:41 * Molly smiles Sep 24 22:14:50 Yes. I hope they have your eyes Sep 24 22:15:20 Whatever for? They're just... blue. Sep 24 22:15:35 They're lovely. Like the sea Sep 24 22:18:06 I don't see it I'm afraid Sep 24 22:18:26 * Molly shrugs Sep 24 22:18:33 Madchen has your eyes Sep 24 22:19:02 * Morgan thinks Sep 24 22:19:06 I suppose she does Sep 24 22:19:12 * Molly nods Sep 24 22:19:21 My hair, your eyes Sep 24 22:20:27 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:20:29 Definitely your hair Sep 24 22:20:38 And a birthmark Sep 24 22:20:54 * Molly nods, touching between her breasts Sep 24 22:20:56 Here? Sep 24 22:21:01 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:21:03 aye Sep 24 22:21:30 * Molly smiles Sep 24 22:21:38 They will all be lovely Sep 24 22:22:21 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:22:25 Of that I have no doubt Sep 24 22:23:21 * Molly smiles "next summer... it's not that long really. Emil will be two by then, which is excellent timing" Sep 24 22:25:07 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:25:10 Aye, it should be Sep 24 22:25:57 The house should be ready by then. I am excited to get started there Sep 24 22:26:52 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:26:55 There is much to do Sep 24 22:27:16 Mmhmm... there is lots I wish to do there Sep 24 22:27:50 Oh? Sep 24 22:28:22 On the roof, in the woods, even in the bed of our own house! Sep 24 22:29:18 * Morgan blushes Sep 24 22:29:21 Oh! I see... Sep 24 22:29:32 * Molly giggles Sep 24 22:29:48 It is not on your to do list? Sep 24 22:30:01 Well, obviously... Sep 24 22:30:17 * Molly nods Sep 24 22:30:21 I'm glad Sep 24 22:31:24 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:31:40 We should get to dinner my love Sep 24 22:32:28 Yes we should. Inga will immediately suspect we've been delayed by each other's enthusiasm at being back on the ship Sep 24 22:32:52 * Morgan nods Sep 24 22:32:55 That doesn't surprise me Sep 24 22:33:13 * Molly nods, chastely kissing his cheek Sep 24 22:33:48 Let's go then, my love Sep 24 22:36:19 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) Sep 24 23:27:51 * Molly has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
